From The Pastor: March 27 2014
March 27, 2014
Dear Friends,
This Sunday is the fourth Sunday in Lent and I’ll be continuing my message series on “The Healing Power of Christ.” This Sunday we’ll focus on the story of “The Healing of Blind Bartimaeus” found in Mark 10:46-52. Join us as we take a closer look at this disadvantaged man sitting beside the road of Jericho who was determined and who was ultimately discipled and became a follower of Jesus Christ..
This Sunday is the Last Sunday to contribute to the America for Christ Offering. So far, we have collected $1,132.00 toward our goal of $2,675.00. We are grateful for your generous gifts and invite those of you who haven’t had a chance to contribute to help us reach our goal this Sunday. Offering envelopes will be available in the sanctuary chair backs and at the Welcome Center.
I will be offering a Baptism Class this Sunday, March 30at 9:45 A.M. in my office. Young people ages 12 through 12th graders are invited to participate. We are planning to observe the ordinance of Believer’s Baptism on Palm Sunday, April 30th during our worship service.
All are welcome to attend a combined Sunday School class in the boardroom at 9:30 A.M. We will have our third “Meet Your Boards” session with the Board of Christian Education as our guest. Please come and learn about what the Board of Christian Education is doing in the life of our church.
The next Boss event is scheduled for this Saturday, March 29 at 5:30 P.M. The Youth group will help serve at the CCATE fundraising Dinner. Meet at the church at 5:00 P.M. to go together to the dinner. Pick up at Grace Baptist by 9:30 P.M. Remember to wear black and white for serving!
The April addition of our church’s newsletter, Grace Notes, will be available this Sunday in your church mailboxes and on the church website.
See you Sunday,
Pastor George
